II our surroundings are unlovely, or at least commonplace, we indulge in daydreams and find no little pleasure in picturing what life would be where everything is i picture. A holiday turns the dr a
into a desire and perhaps makes the return home .something like dismissal frem Paradise. Happily for our moral health, the feeling does not last. ’Hie return to routine has a wholesome effect on our system, and we discover bow sweet is work - after rest. But this is not. all that happens. I bought begins to play about the subject, and we make discoveries that could not be made while we were revelling in the joys of lakes and mountains or in the historic enchantments of ruined abbeys and castles. Reflection brings ns ba'-k to solid earth.” —W.C.B. in the "Hinn. inglinm Post.”
